it’s common knowledge that even small increases in checks at Dover (thanks to no-deal Brexit) could prompt queues on adjacent roads, potentially causing gridlock in Kent....but just how bad could it be?

Here’s a report last year from @imperialcollege

google.co.uk/amp/s/www.bbc.…
today we got our hands on the findings from another secret study carried out by UCL on behalf of the Department For Transport : the findings are much more explosive....
and here it is:

The key point is that extra checks of up to 40 seconds per truck don’t result in extra queues. But above that there would be an exponential spike on delays:

With checks of 70 seconds per truck there would be....queues of SIX DAYS

Daily Mail turning on Hard Brexit is a cultural moment to rival Dylan going electric
it’s somehow discordant, like watching Richard Briers play a serial killer or something
or reading an editorial in The Economist entitled “The Case For Protectionism”

Big Labour policy announcement coming up any second now, hold on tight.....
Every large British company would be forced to hand over 10 per cent of its equity to workers within a decade under Labour plans branded “draconian” by one business group.....
Unveiling one of the most interventionist business policies put forward by a mainstream British political party for a generation, John McDonnell said workers would become “part-owners” of their employers, eventually benefiting by up to £500 a year in dividend payments....

I began my formal research in 1999, eight years after battling my way out of a secret, so-called #Marxist-#Leninist group whose leader controlled my life in its most intimate details.

He determined what I wore: a version of the advice in John Molloy’s bestseller Dress for Success (1975), featuring tailored blue suits and floppy red silk bowties. More significantly, he decided when I could marry, and whether I might have children.

#Khashoggi Case Thread: I am going to ‘pin’ this post to use it as an ‘Info Thread’ on the #Khashoggi Case. I am in #Turkey. I’ve been following the case closely and with access to sources & experts here. This is a very ‘sensitive’ criminal case due to ‘Diplomatic Booby Traps’!!!
The Evidence Obtained Outside Cameras will not show any evidence of ‘tempering’ but other than license plates of dozens of diplomatic cars (Many with tinted windows-large trunks) with related time stamp, drivers Info, model/year: Nothing.
#Turkish Intel-Investigative Bodies also have the list of all Diplomatic & Private Saudi & “other significant’ Planes in #Turkey for the period of ‘interest.’ Many of the Target airports have their own security cameras & related evidence.

For the last 24 hours I've been texting & calling with refugees in Libya. 500 are apparently stuck in a Tripoli prison w/o food & water after heavy fighting broke out two days ago. They say their guards ran away, leaving them alone.
These refugees are men, women & children. They tried to cross the Mediterranean earlier this year, but were found by Italian boats, who turned them over to the EU-backed Libyan coastguard, who put them in prison. The conditions were already terrible before the fighting started.
Oh the phone earlier I could hear children crying & what sounded like bombing in the distance. The refugees say everyone's incredibly frightened. "We hear machine guns, tanks, big bombs, last night from the roof it was all fire."

#NorthDakota woman charged with adoption scam grandforksherald.com/news/crime-and… #SavannaGreywind #Minnesota #NorthDakota #ChildTrafficking #CULT @realDonaldTrump @jeffsessions @GenFlynn Baby's father is a MATHENY❗
I believe this is a crock of sh!t orchestrated to distract from the bizzare truth & all the reasonably suspicious circumstances of those initially involved! This is what those we entrust to protect & serve devote their time to MAUFACTURING CRIME SCENES TO DISTRACT FROM THE #TRUTH
I have more research. All tagged have what I discovered.

It's very disheartening to say the lrast that this Northern Swamp remains undeterred, considering #Minnesota is a prime hub procuring these kids nationally/internationally❗#TRUTH

Now, Twitter, explain this. (Thread)
1/ Here is Redwood's FT profile. Describes himself as "Chief Global Strategist for Charles Stanley". Fact he is a senior Conservative MP and former Cabinet Minister is completely omitted. ft.com/john-redwood
2/ Here is Redwood's profile from his own website. Detailed description of his political career. No mention of his role at Charles Stanley, or any other investment management role for that matter. johnredwoodsdiary.com/about-john-red…

GOOD MORNING, TWITTER! #SexyHistory Tuesday IS UPON US, gird thy loins and such! Today's Topic: James II: Royal F*ckboi.
So every Tuesday, when history STOPS getting polite, and STARTS getting real- er, sexy- people bring up Charles II. BECAUSE OF COURSE.
Charles II is, like, PATRON SAINT of Sexy History, which is why I'm NOT doing a bit on him. For one, it would be a 10 part series.
